<p><!--StartFragment-->MLA 7th Edition no longer requires the use of URLs for electronic documents unless the writer feels it will be difficult to locate the original source using the citation information provided. Additionally, the title of the publication or website is now italicized. The medium of publication (web) is required after the name of the publication. If no website publisher is named, use N.p. to denote this.</p>
